Lighter, better approach angle, better weight transfer. I came from skidoo and had many of the sc suspensions and they are a piece of cake to get dialed in not to mention they are great when set up for off trail. I'm going to take measurements tonight and if I can do this project without the additions of drop brackets on the rear mounts, I'm going to do it and post pics. Mines an 08 so I have the wider tunnel that might allow me to avoid drop brackets, we ll see.....
